I've heard from OCR experts that most (all?) open-source OCR is of very poor quality, so I was hoping that some other commercial product had an embedded OCR in it that would be available through Python.
The Gamera project is interesting, being both Python-based and Mac-friendly, but they tend towards research topics like recognizing musical notes on a 200-year-old printed score, rather than bread-and-butter textual OCR.
